Willey; nature is not sentimental!
The Robins decided to leave their nest in the shed today. Just after lunch I walked out in to the yard to find two of the fledglings sitting in the open, just as I was looking as a Magpie swooped and one was gone. It was soon back so I moved the other one to cover. However, it and two others were constantly calling which really gave away their position. The Magpie came back and was lurking in cover. Needless to say bu the end of the afternoon no fledglings were heard.
The parent Robins took no notice, but their survival strategy must work as they have survived hundreds of thousands of years.
